Now for something a little different. A couple years ago I heard about the USB-DVB dongles that you could use for software radio, so I picked one up. Of course it sat around in a box until a few weeks ago, when I scratched my computer-building itch by getting an Intel NUC. The NUC DN2820 is kind of annoying due to the UEFI BIOS, but waiting around for a BIOS update paid off and I was able to install Mint 16 (Mate) using unetbootin. I installed gnuradio from the Mint repository, and librtlsdr 0.5.3 from source.
